Last Friday, the new kindergartners at Stonewall Jackson Elementary held a parade to honor the American “Labor Day” holiday.The children were adorned in red, white, and blue, and carried handmade US flags and hats.

Led by their teachers and followed by a cheerful audience of parents, all kindergarten classes marched all the way from the school playground and around to the flagpole, where they sang and also signed to the song “God Bless America”.
